BYU dancEnsemble to present original choreography Nov. 9-10

The Brigham Young University Department of Dance will present the dancEnsemble fall concert, “dancEnsemble: In Motion,” on Friday and Saturday, Nov. 9-10, at 7:30 p.m. in 166 Stephen L. Richards Building.

Tickets will be $5 and can be purchased at the Fine Arts Ticket Office, by calling (801) 422-4322 or by visiting performances.byu.edu.

Unlike many performing groups at BYU, the modern dance-based dancEnsemble provides students an opportunity to present their own choreography. Hence, the performance will feature a wide range of moods, emotions and ideas.

For example, dancEnsemble member Ariel Hortin will present a piece that has something for everyone, with such varying themes as tug-o-war, zombies and hip-hop. Ashley Bradshaw, another ensemble member, will explore natural human behavior in her dance.

“Each piece performed will complement the overall diversity of the concert,” said Robin McLelland, a part-time faculty member in the Department of Dance.

Along with student works, the performance will also feature works by faculty members Pat Debenham and Pam Musil.

For more information, contact Robin McLelland at (801) 455- 8398.
